Share screenshots and photos with confidence. HideInfo helps you manually cover private details before sending an image. Choose exactly what to hide and export only the redacted result. [Main Features] - Choose a photo or screenshot from your library - Cover details with black or white redaction boxes - Use a pixel brush for faces, profile images, numbers, and addresses - Use a soft mask for a natural covered look - Undo the last mark or clear everything - Save the redacted image to Photos - Share the result directly from the app [Manual Privacy Control] HideInfo does not promise automatic detection. You decide what should be hidden, drag over the sensitive area, and review the final image before sharing. [Works Great For] - Chat screenshots - Receipts and order screens - Maps and addresses - Profile photos and faces - Phone numbers, account numbers, and names Hide private details quickly before you share an image.
